Yes, 'Princess Victoria' is a named plumeria that was distributed under that name, but many believe that it is 'Metaire Pink' with a virus. Unfortunately, it is possible for a plumeria with a virus to be registered with the Plumeria Society of America. This subject is often controversial with strong feelings on both side. Some like it, and some don't.

I think 'Rose Red' has more rounded petals, but different conditions...and all that. Here is my 'Rose Red.' 'Rose Red' has a distinct yellow center. Look how slender and pointy the leaves are as well. The peduncle on 'Rose Red' is very red.
